THE DIVISION AND
CONTROVERSY ABOUT CHRIST DIVINITY JOHN 7:40-44
Some o the people in the crowd heard him say
this and said,
“This
man is really the Prophet.”
Others said, “He is the Messiah!”
But others said, “The Messiah will not come
from Galilee!
The scripture says that the Messiah will be a
descendant of King David and will be born in Bethlehem, the town where David
lived.” So there was a division in the crowd because of Jesus. Some wanted to
seize him, but no one laid a hand on him.
Why do we often go into someone personal
history, and background? Do we do so
with pure motives? Most times we do so to find faults because we are jealous,
we are insecure, we do not have the quality of that individual so we look for
his/her defect. We are blind in seeing
the good qualities that are more than the faults we are trying to find. There
may be none, yet we try to create one. I
must search my mind, my heart. Father in heaven, I ask that I be spared from
this sin. Help me see the goodness in all your creatures. Help me appreciate
these qualities, and give glory to your holy name.
